The Fuegoshow with Eleni Foureira

The Fuegoshow with Eleni Foureira is a Lussantian televised song contest which began airing on LFR 1 on 26 May 2018. It is presented by world-famous pop singer Eleni Foureira.

Format
The Fuegoshow with Eleni Foureira is a song contest created to showcase established and upcoming Lussantian talents. Five or six artists compete in each episode. At the end of all the performances, the judges (Eleni Foureira, Angèle and Selah Sue in the first season), attribute 1, 2, 3 (in a show with 6 songs), 4, 6 and 8 points to every competing act, 1 point going to the worst and 8 to the best. Following this, televote points are attributed. At the end of the results, the winner of the episode gets to participate in the grand finale of the season. The second and third places are given second chances in the following episode. Every episode is broadcast live.

History
In March of 2018, the creation of a new musical competition show has been evoked. Leaks have shown that the LFR called several artists (Gabriela Gunčíková, Conchita Wurst, Marina Kaye being the names quoted) in order to be the figurehead of the show. It was later revealed that none of the singers quoted accepted the proposal, because of scheduling and/or personal issues.

On April 29, Daya posted a suspicious message on her Twitter and Facebook accounts: "Currently working with the future LFR for a BIG project...". This made a lot of people think that the singer would host the new show, a fact which was denied by both the LFR and Daya herself in the following days.

It was on May 12 that the program was revealed to be hosted by Foureira, with Angèle and Selah Sue as judges. The official name of the show was also revealed.

Foureira signed for one season of 13 episodes, broadcasted every Saturday then Friday (with possible exceptions) during the months of June, July and August 2018. Later, she agreed to shoot two more episodes, scheduling a season premiere on May 26 and adding another episode in August, pushing back the date of the grand finale to August 31.
